Why you should join us

Raleigh City Cemeteries Preservation, Inc.

Raleigh City Cemeteries Preservation (RCCP) is a 501C3 organization and is incorporated as a non profit in the State of North Carolina. We were established in 2006. RCCP is a partner with the City of Raleigh and others to promote and provide preservation and restoration of the three city owned historic public cemeteries.

Our mission is “to help the City of Raleigh promote and provide preservation and restoration of city-owned cemeteries and assist with programs to enhance education and heritage tourism.”

Adopt a Grave- You Can Help!

Raleigh City Cemeteries Preservation, Inc. is working with individuals to restore graves in these historic cemeteries in Raleigh. We have restored many graves on an individual basis, including broken obelisks and headstones.

Our restoration expert, Dean Ruedrich, is available to help us complete the work according to the US Secretary of Interior standards for historic preservation and conservation. Individual prices are available upon request. If you interested, please contact us so that we can work with you to accomplish this important work together!
